The schematic of a rectangular patio is drawn 1/4 inch to 1 feet. if the patio is 18 feet long, what is the measure of the patio's length on the schematic?

Try 4.5 inches. You take 18, divide it by four you get 4.5. I divided by 4 because of the 1/4 inch by 1 foot. Minus 2 from 18, you get the next closest dividend of 4 and that's 16. 16 divided by 4 is 4. 2 are left over to make. 5. you get 4.5
